Was expecting talk of the Clasica de San Sebastian actually

I'm expecting Luis Leon Sanchez to repeat. He did take a stage of the Tour, after all (Rabo's only success).

I doubt it honestly, even Erik Breukink had to admit that LL Sanchez's victory was a lucky break given his form. I'd sooner suspect Carlos Barredo (2009s winner) to win, if anyone from Rabobank at all.

He has definitely done real well.

And yes, I thought this was a doping scandal update.

It would be nice if they could confirm that the testing is done and there won't be any more cases, besides the one we already know about.

Yeah, it's crazy, like I've said for much of the year, he's the best cyclist in the world right now. And hell, while he didn't win, at least I was right on Barredo being the one with the best chances as far as Rabobank is concerned .

Testing is all done and besides the Russian Kolobnev, who didn't feature in any of the results, all of the doping tests were negative. The final official podium of Cadel Evans, Andy Schleck, and Frank Schleck is secure.
